hey @SarahSweden: I am trying my best to be gentle here but I admit its tough. It seems like no matter what you have an issue with a therapist. Many therapists. Below I listed some of the threads you started about you and therapists. And this isnt all of them, it was like maybe one page. Do you see a pattern here? I am not sure you are ever going to find what you are looking for because what you seem to want is unattainable or impossible. Do you think there is a part of you that doesnt want therapy to succeed and that a part of you likes the conflict and strife associated with problems with therapists. Sometimes we get comfortable and used to certain things and ways of acting even when they are unhealthy, negative or unproductive. Being Familiar with the situations that our feelings associate with is comforting in a way and fear keeps us from going out of our comfort zone and working on ourselves. its very selfish of us to work at it this way and I do not see how any sort of productive work could get done if started out like this.
